Who We Are
The attorneys at Hasan have built their careers on the belief that the only way to practice good law is to practice good business. That is why we dedicate ourselves to every client as if we were their general counsel. We genuinely take the time to understand their business, including their past, present, and future. It’s the only way we can provide the best service and deliver the best results. We want to be more than good lawyers; we want to be good advisors and true partners.
Hasan strongly supports fostering access and equity in our community on multiple levels. The firm’s attorneys are community members and community leaders. In addition to our work in the legal and business communities, we are involved in the equity, diversity, and inclusion space (EDI) and the art community. The firm’s founder, Rehan K. Hasan, is a known leader in the EDI space, and he was given the “Highly Commended: Diversity & Inclusion Lawyer of the Year” award by Chambers USA in 2020, a prestigious and international legal industry organization.

Rehan Hasan brings the unique lens of entrepreneur, financier, and lawyer to each client engagement, taking his guidance far beyond the abilities of most business counsel.
